A Parylene Peripheral Nerve Cuff Electrode with Integrated Microfluidics
We present a novel micromachined polymer peripheral nerve interface that combines both electrodes and microfluidic channels in an adjustable cuff sized to interface with rat sciatic nerve. Parylene fluidic channels enable targeted delivery of lysing agents and neurotrophic factors to fascicle sites on the nerve surface, in order to induce axonal sprouting towards electrodes. This Lyse-andAttrac...
متن کاملFascicle Selective Recording with a Nerve Cuff Electrode
AB STRAC'T A multipolar split cuff electrode is used for fascicle selective recording of the electroneurogram (ENG) of the sciatic nerve of the rabbit. Several electrode configurations were evaluated with regarding to seleclivity: the peroneal and tibial nerves were stimulated alternately and the ENG was recorded at different sides of the sciatic nerve. The results for two electrode configurati...
متن کاملSelective Fascicular Recording of the Hypoglossal Nerve Using a Multi- Contact Nerve Cuff Electrode
The use of nerve cuff electrodes as p a r t of a closed loop functional electrical stimulation (FES) system has been demonstrated as a reliable alternative to artificial sensors (e.g., strain gauge). T o circumvent the need for multiple electrodes to record neural activity f rom different fascicles within a nerve, the flat interface nerve electrode (FINE) is presented as a potential approach to...
متن کاملA slowly penetrating interfascicular nerve electrode for selective activation of peripheral nerves.
To meet the future needs of functional electrical stimulation (FES) applications, peripheral nerve electrodes must be able to safely, selectively, and independently stimulate small subpopulations of the axons within a common nerve trunk. A new electrode has been designed to place contacts outside of the perineurium, but within the epineurium of the nerve. This slowly penetrating interfascicular...
متن کاملSelective Stimulation of the Hypoglossal Nerve with a Multi-Contact Cuff Electrode
The feasibility of selectively stimulating the hypoglossal nerve (XII) with a multi-contact flat-interfacenerve -electrode (FINE) was investigated for the potential application of treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The main trunk of the XII was stimulated with monophasic cathodic pulses, while the elicited electroneurographic (ENG) and electromyographic (EMG) signals were recorded. Selecti...
